You have the opportunity to experience or learn directly from a Kumu (teacher) who has been ritually passed the ancient and traditional lineage teachings directly from a Hawaiian master through serving a one-on-one apprenticeship over a period of four years. This knowledge was learnt in the strictest, purest form directly from Dawn’s ‘Kahu’ Sherman Dudoit, not in a classroom or workshop but in a deep immersive secretive training both in Australia and Hawaii. A Lineage holder is the keeper of the secrets in true authentic Hawaiian tradition.
Dawn Charlton is the first non-Hawaiian to have had this honour bestowed upon her. She has been given the responsibility of the lineage to carry and to share this particular style of Lomi Lomi through various levels of training. The first 3 levels being in Australia or abroad and completing level 4 always back to the source, in Hawaii. You will have the opportunity to receive direct & personal knowledge exactly how it was taught for hundreds of years in Polynesian culture. A lineage of this type can only be passed onto a single person therefore this style of teaching will never be taught authentically in Australia or anywhere else in the world other than by Dawn.
Once you have begun your learning journey and upon your first step, you will automatically join our exclusive Traditional Old Style Lomi Lomi ‘Ohana’ massage family.
As an exclusive member you will be entitled to lots of benefits, ongoing nurturing support and guidance. We hold many interesting and varied events at our very own Tally Valley Ohana Retreat, all of which our ‘Ohana members receive discounts and preferred booking status. All activities are in collaboration with our Hawaiian heritage or of the same holistic ambiance or vibe, such as Hula, Ho’oponopono, Pa’a, Goddess workshops, Spiritual classes, Yoga, and many more.
Our ‘Tally Valley Ohana Retreat, Spa and Training Centre’ is set in Tallebudgera Valley, on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. It has been created and set up purely for our purpose to enhance the strong mana (energy) which emanates from Dawn. Many have discovered a true healing or awakening during their stay and experienced purposeful energy shifts just by being here.
All students develop a fingerprint impression of this authentic lineage to carry forward on their own personal journey. Thank you for your interest and may your life be blessed.
